Recently I invented this interesting Shell Box. I was sitting at my desk after a tiring day, and to clear my busy mind I decided to experiment with a box model by Tomoko Fuse. I realized that with the extra paper on top I could make a variation where I folded the top like an accordion, and then fold behind the corners to make four shells on the top of the paper. Any stress that I had been feeling was pressed into the folds of the paper, and I felt very free and relaxed. I could not wait to put this on display in my living room, which is teeming with my favorite origami designs.
